"The people who run the game, they are the ones who want to change it and make people believe that its different somehow. Its not different, the only difference is that some ballplayers today have a chance for a four- or five-year contract and they can make big money."

In waiting for the glorious moment of that first book contract, writers must have giant reservoirs of patience. Yet they must persevere because they don't know the destiny that is being worked out for them. They creep humbly along the ground, without the spacious aerial vision of their lives that would show them the destiny in store for them.
